Opening sentence
Ka aha koe mehemea ka rokohanga atu he marakihau kua pae ki uta?
E noho ana a Tiare rāua ko tana taina a Ropi ki Uawa ki Te Tairāwhiti, ā, ka whakaorahia e rāua tētahi marakihau kua pae ki uta. Kāore i roa ka tae mai ngā taipō moana, ngā ponaturi weriweri me ngā atua Māori, ā, ka mau rātou katoa i waenganui i te pakanga nui a ngā atua nei. He mautanga tino tawhito tēnei i waenga i ngā atua mai i te wehenga o ō rātou mātua a Ranginui rāua ko Papatūānuku. Ko Tiare te tangata e āhei ana ki te hohou i te rongomau me te whakahoki i te maungārongo ki te taiao me te whenua kia whai oranga ai te iwi.

He tuhinga auaha tēnei mā te kaipānui reo Māori e reka ana ki te pānui i ngā paki pohewa, ki te whakawhanake hoki i tana puna kupu reo Māori. Ko te mita o Ngāti Porou te reo kawe kōrero, ā, he papakupu reo Māori whai muri i ia wāhanga hei āwhina i te kaipānui ki te āta mārama ki ngā kupu hou. He pukapuka kua whakamāoritia kētia tēnei.

He pukapuka pai mā ngā ākonga kei ngā taumata pānui o Pīngao, o Miro piki ake (arā ake, ko tōna matatau ki te pānui, matatau rānei.)
